About This Home

As of May 2016

Impeccable condition. Solid construction. Great location. This Exeter Township 3 bedroom cape exhibits all of these attributes, plus so much more. Situated on a large, level corner lot, this all- brick home features a long list of outstanding amenities: custom kitchen with birch cabinets, hard wood floors throughout the main level, two fireplaces (brick in the living room and stone in the lower level family room), two bedrooms and full bath on the main level, and large bedroom and half bath on the upper level. The lower level contains a beautifully finished family room with stone fireplace, wood paneling, and wrap around wet bar, plus a half bath. The mechanicals are all top of the line and in excellent condition, including a direct-wired Generac generator. The exterior of the house is as impressive as the interior. New roof, replacement windows, over-sized two-car garage with two over-head doors with openers, storage shed, and to crown it all, beautiful landscaping. Come for a look, you will like what you see.
